Wellness in Building Design (VAP)

“Wellness is becoming a very big thing, certainly a big focus in commercial work. What can the building do to help those inside it, as well as the planet? And I think that overlay brings timber to the fore.”

— Paul Reidy (Partner), Fitzpatrick + Partners

Fitzpatrick + Partners, one of Australia’s leading architecture firms, travelled to Tasmania to experience first-hand Tasmania’s forest management practices and timber industry. The firm’s four partners spent three days exploring Tasmania’s beautiful forests; learning about how they are managed, the Forest Practices System, and sustainability certification. They also learnt about Tasmanian timber processing and products, and the applications for those products in both residential and commercial settings.
